Letter: Golf outing a success

On June 28, the third annual Austin Matthew Quinn Memorial Golf Outing was held at Crestview Golf Course. This event supports a scholarship set up through the Ball State Foundation fund 1071.

We would like to thank the many local businesses as well as those from the tri-state area along with the friends and family members that helped to make this the most successful event yet. This year we were able to add more than $9,000 to this fund, which now has a balance exceeding $30,000.

This enables us to proceed in endowing this scholarship fund, which will help allow it to be a permanent gift. It is only through the generous support of all those involved that this has been accomplished.

Unfortunately, there are too many that deserve to be recognized to list here. Whether you played in the event, came out for the raffles and auctions that are open to the public, or made a donation to support them, our family is grateful beyond words and we want to thank you for helping us not only memorialize Austin's life but invest in the young people from our community while doing so.
